LEAD Innovation Studio

The LEAD Innovation Studio is an optional high school program. It offers personalized, project-based learning with hands-on professional experiences for all kinds of students from all over the district who decide to enroll.

Land details

We purchased almost 272 acres of land at 68th Street and Waukomis Drive, on the eastern edge of our district, for $3 million. This purchase is a result of the long-range, enrollment-based facilities plan the Board developed with input from staff, students, parents and community members.

As called for in our long-range plan, our new site will house our next elementary school and a facility for our high-school students. The LEAD Innovation Studio, which is currently in a leased office space, will move to the new high-school facility no sooner than 2020.

The size of this land and the designs for the high-school facility will allow us to build onto it to make a full high school at this location if we have enough enrollment growth in the future.
